Opinions needed from the experts.
 

Close to me a guy is selling the following items. I would like to take some good digital pics of the area, pets, familiy. Will never become a pro but would like to be able to take good local pics. Is this a good buy or should I start with something less complicated.
Thanks.

Her's the add:

I am selling the following Olympus SLR gear (lenses and camera). I recently purchased a Canon 7D, so I no longer need this gear.

Camera:
Evolt E-500 SLR (Four Thirds Mount) includes: 2gb XD card, charger, strap and carrying case: $200

Lens:
Zuiko Digital 14-54mm F2.8 - $300, includes lens, polarizing filter, hood and caps
Zuiko Digital 15-45mm F3.5 - $50, includes lens, hood and caps
Zuiko Digital 40-150mm F3.5 - $50, includes lens, polarizing filter, hood and caps
Zuiko OM F1.8 50mm prime - $50, includes Zuiko Digital Adapter, and caps. Made in JAPAN.

Take it all for $500
